    I've attempted to apply complex physics to random every day things..
    Thought about coding whilst lay in bed and tried discussing it with my g/f (who... wasn't that pleased)..
    Back in my cs days I've experienced what I thought was lag in real life for a brief moment..

    More recently I thought for a split-second I could 'blink' in real life (as per WoW mage talent..)..

    meh.. damn I'm a geek.
    We cannot choose what we are.. but what are we but the sum of our choices?

    I don't think the word "geek" quite covers that!

    Now let's cut to the chase. You know you're a real geek when you have more PCs than friends.
    I'm admitting nothing.

    Ok maybe this isn't geeky but just a crap sense of humour.

    Looking at scanners on Dabs.com earlier today, in the specifications section of one it has a specification called "Media Types", and a value of "Plain paper. Bulky objects (books)."

    Just made me laugh...where you have people going oh have we got any 3.5 inch DSDD floppy disks, or DL DVD+RW...then something saying "this scanner accepts Book media"....ah maybe just me...
    Well Hello!

    I had a dream the other night that my mate got into my ebay account and sold stuff which didn't exist and I got negative feedback!

    Then I also dreamt about the Dollar went down to 20p per dollar so everything online was dead cheap, so I started buying loads of cool stuff online.

    SAD!

    Guilty of so many, saying LOL, seeing cover and moving oddly CS-like. Getting frustrated at not being able to press F3 when I want to find something on paper, or Control-Z when I screw up.

    I think the worst is when you admire some piece of scenery or some water or the like, as if it were in a PC game, and think "jesus the graphics are amazing!"
